Android tablets contain an open source operating system that allows many hardware manufacturers such as Samsung, Asus, and Archos to easily produce an Android-based operating system device. This operating system is viewed as the best alternative when compared to the Apple's operating system which is not open sourced. Both hardware and software, using the Apple operating system, is close sourced making it proprietary and hard to market in this aspect. Android tablets, on the other hand, are seen with great diversity offering many different features depending on the manufacturer.
